Alishan Forest Railway Main Line | Independent Mountain Spiral | National Important Cultural Landscape The Alishan Forest Railway is 71.6 kilometers long, divided into plains and mountain sections. The 14.2-kilometer section from Chiayi to Zhuqi is a flat plain section with normal curves and gradients, a minimum radius of curvature of 160 meters, and a maximum gradient of 2%. The 57.2-kilometer section from Zhuqi to Alishan is a mountain section with steep terrain and a maximum gradient of 6.25%. The railway ascends from an altitude of 30 meters in Chiayi City to 2216 meters in Alishan, offering views of the changing plant life of tropical, warm, and temperate forest zones, as well as the beautiful scenery of mountains and valleys. The train journey takes approximately 2.5 hours, traversing the forest and enjoying the natural beauty. Furthermore, the Alishan Forest Railway is Asia's "highest" narrow-gauge mountain railway, exceeding the altitude of the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway in India.
Fenqihu | Fenqihu Railway Bento | Fenqihu Station A relay station on the Alishan Forest Railway, Fenqihu is known as the Jiufen of Southern Taiwan. It was once famous for its old streets, bento boxes, and square bamboo. This mountain town, at an altitude of 1405 meters, belongs to Zhonghe Village, Zhuqi Township, Chiayi County. "Hu" in the Minnan dialect means low-lying area, but there are actually no lakes in the area. Because it is surrounded by mountains on the east, west, and north sides, with a low-lying terrain and a flat center, it resembles a dustpan, often surrounded by clouds and mist, hence its former name, "Dustpan Lake." Later, due to the inelegant name, it was changed to "Fenqihu" (meaning "Striving for Progress"). The name "Fenqihu" is a homophone for "dustpan" and "dustpan" signifies striving for excellence.
